Stock Stats - Free android app

[Rage]

Hey everyone

Just came across this free android app that claims to give updates from all the major sites on your andoid phone. Wanted to get some feedback from some experienced users before I installed it

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.raystockphotos.stockstats

[photostockad]

Try Microstockr. I have it installed and i am using it for 1 year.

This is free....  That is the only draw

Bump, have any of the pros tried this?

It would be good if the developer showed up and was someone who is "verified". It's hard to trust you account data with someone who you don't know, so it can be free as much as it likes.

[Rage]

Which is exactly the reason I'm posting here. Especially after one of our pro members used a sniffer and found a freeware that transmitted this info back to the developer

I am the developer of this App. The password is encrypted and stored in local database, the username and password is posted to the agency website directly, and no intermediate or third party server is involved in this process.  I can assure you I don't gather or distribute you username or password.

I tried it, like it, but them some agencies didn't seem to want to update anymore. It didn't matter what I tried, uninstall, reinstall, once a few agencies wouldn't refresh I gave up and uninstalled. Seems to have a few problems.

This app was released less than a month ago, and now its newest version is 1.1.0(Android only, iOS 1.0.3 version is still under review). If you have any problems when using this app, please first try with the newest version, if the problem still exists, please let me know, I'll try to fix it asap.

All agencies work fine on my android and iPad devices(both v1.1.0).

[Rage]

Seems to work well, the only issue I'm having is that 133rf won't login. It goes to 123rf login page and then immediately comes back to the app and tries to update.

Yeas I first had that same problem with 123RF and then P5 also became stuck

[WooStock]

Thank you for your feedback, I will check it up.

izzikiorage, I wrote a PM to you, please check and kindly help me to fix the problem.

For 123RF, you need to click the red button on the right twice, for the first time, you need to input the username and password, then the app will close the login window automatically. Then, the button's background will be red again, and you have to click it and input the security code, please make sure your operation steps are done as described above. And also you need to login to 123RF at least one time a day to fetch your earning data because of the security mechanism of 123RF.

For pond5, would you please describe in more detail for me to analyze this problem?

Hi pkphotos,

I've reproduced the problem of P5, when the user input a wrong username of P5, the app will go wrong. Fix will be available in V 1.1.1, thank you for your feedback.

[WooStock]

The problem with 123RF is fixed in V 1.1.2, Android version will be avaible in a few hours. Thank you for your feedback.

Cool app, 1st one that keeps accurate totals

There are other good apps but I find that totals aren't adding up.

Mr Developer, I'm wondering about your motivation to build this app and then offer it for free (for realz). I mean, having in mind that you could have earned some money by choosing to make it a paid app. Is it a part of your business model, you just like building and giving apps for free, or something else (what)?

[KimsCreativeHub]

Actually on the apple store "iTunes" $$ can be made from adds

As KimsCreativeHub has said, free app earns money through AD. If you install my app, you'll notice the AD banner on the top.

In the future, some new features may need to be paid by In-App purchase, no such plan for now, all features currently available will be free forever.

[spike]

Cool, thanks for the answer!

Sorry for the inconvinience, Please try V1.1.4. This error only affects very small part of users, so it's hard to reproduce.

[Rage]

Ray, please don't say sorry. You've made an amazing app, I'm pretty sure we're all happy to help with the improvements

To all users, if you meet problems when using this app, please don't hesitate to contact me.

Ray, I've been facing a new problem over the last couple of days. Shutterstock will not update. Normally it would give the pen icon to Input the captcha and then update. However now it tries to update, fails and does not prompt me to enter the captcha

Any suggestions?

[ravens]

Hey, can you save or move this app to the SD card?

Both file number and earning don't update?

Did you upgrade to the latest version (V1.1.6 on Android)? 

[WooStock]

Hey, can you save or move this app to the SD card?

I think it's OK.You can try to move the app to the external storage using your favourite tools.  If it stops working after moving, just move it back or reinstall it without data loss.

[Rage]

Did you upgrade to the latest version (V1.1.6 on Android)?

Yup, on the latest version. No both don't update. I think that without entering the captcha the app is unable to get access to the shutterstock information. However it is not prompting me to enter the captcha, so there is not much I can do.

I even tried removing shutter stock and re adding it, and even uninstalling the app and reinstalling it. In both cases it simply used the already saved login and password information and did not ask me to re enter them. So that did not work

[dirkr]

Just installed it, nice app!

Some issues:

It doesn't load the balance for Pond5 (shows zero).
It doesn't load the number of images for 123rf (shows zero).
It doesn't load either of those numbers for Depositphotos.

And one additional question: Would it be possible to make the notification sound configurable?

thx.
P.S: all of the above for the Iphone version...

I'll publish a new iOS version in a few days, most of these problems will be fixed in this new version.

No configurable notification sound for now, maybe consider it in some future version.

Just release V1.1.7 for android on Google Play. Please update it in a few hours and tell me your results because I cannot reproduce this problem on my own devices.

Thank you.

[Rage]

Will give the new version a shot. BTW is there a way to update the password for a stock agency incase you change it? maybe that will allow me to get into shutter stock


Either way, it's amazing how quickly you reply to problems

[Rage]

The update solved my problem..... Thank you

Hi,
Just installed the app. Nice!
But I have two problems:
1. No stats for DP
2.Wrong amount for 123RF - it includes current month and last month earnings.

[WooStock]

Hi,

1. No stats for DP
2.Wrong amount for 123RF - it includes current month and last month earnings.

Are you using iOS V1.1.4 ?

[scandurica]

Forgot about that - android 4.2.2, dowloaded the app today from google play, I dont know which version it is.

LE: 1.1.8.

[WooStock]

Hi,
Just installed the app. Nice!
But I have two problems:
1. No stats for DP
2.Wrong amount for 123RF - it includes current month and last month earnings.

For question No. 2: In the index page, the app shows the current account Balance for each agency. It is not your monthly earning. In the Stats page, it show your earning statistics of some month based on the data after you install the app.

[scandurica]

I already got that. 123RF might be wrong because their last payment was not registered yet on the site. That means from 1 till 15 of the month I will nor get the correct amount even if on the site the amount is correct. Maybe you are not extracting the data correctly.

On all other agencies the app shows the correct amount, meaning how much I have on that agency regardless the month. For example FT - just withdraw 120, still have around 49 and the app shows 49. This month I have earned 42 and since i installed the app  1.59.
DP is 0 even though i have money there.

[scandurica]

On DP the file number is also 0.

[WooStock]

On DP the file number is also 0.

On some android devices, the app will go wrong when crawling DP data. It should be fine on most android devices and all iOS devices.

I cannot find a way to fix this problem for now, sorry for the inconvenience.

After communicating in detail, we both agree that it is not a bug. 

[scandurica]

Yes, thanks for the explanations. 

[WooStock]

Just released a new version V1.2.0 on Google Play: in the stats screen, it can show your earnings by date and also can generate a line chart.

[scandurica]

DP is ok for me now.
Can you make possible to start the cycle lets say at 2am and finish at 1am(next day) ? It is not possible now. SS day ends at 10am (my country) and it would be wonderfull to have exact data.

All daily statistics are based on local time zone, it's only an estimation, hardly possible to be completely precise.

I forgot to mention that there's another app (deep stats) which can precisely explore your earnings at shutterstock by many means, by date, by month, by year , by download type, etc. more information can be found here: http://soft.raystockphotos.com/wiki/doku.php?id=ss.stats:start

[scandurica]

Interesting, but there are 7 other agencies in my list. I really love this app , Stock stats. It would be wonderful to set start hour 10 am and end hour 9.58 am (next day) and see the real numbers for a day. If it is not possible...that's ok.

Thank you again for this app.

Thank you again for this app.

The main purpose of Stock Stats App is to read your balance and file number data on agencies' web sites and notify you when the data is changed.  All the stats data are generated based on the balance data( new balance minus old balance equals your new earning). If you don't run the app very often, the daily stats data will be inaccurate. So, I don't think it is much meaningful for the user to set time zone. Don't forget every agency web site has different time zone.

I hope others users can provide your suggestions, because it is technically possible to provide this feature.  I  may change my mind according to your opinions.

[scandurica]

I am using this app to know , at a moment, how much money have I made today. I know that agencies have different time zone but at 10 AM my time, I consider the day closed. 
I have an average of 60+ dl/day and I don't want to know every time a file is downloaded. This will only be useful for a beginner. Remember when you were a beginner and had 1 dl/day?

Anyway, like I said, it is ok like that.

There's a trick to solve your problem, stop using this app(quit or log out) from 10:00 o'clock till 24:00. you'll get the data you want.

The new line graph is pretty cool. Gives a more accurate picture of how good or bad the earnings are going

Would you please modify the title of the post to "Stock Stats - Free mobile app" or something similar for other members to understand that the app also supports iOS ?

Will do, although I'll need to figure out how

There' a bug (I guess).. I had a payout on Pond5 today and my Pond5 balance is showing a negative number.

I get that the app "calculates" how much you have earned by comparing the current balance with the balance from the last login, but in this case it doesn't give the correct number (depends on how you define correct) - the useful number. I surely didn't lose x$ with the payout... is there a way to fix this?

I think you need to upgrade the app to the latest version to prevent this error next time.

To fix the wrong earning number of Pond5, goto the menu page, choose "Adjust Earning" menu item, then choose Pond5, and input a number to balance out the wrong negative earning data.

Currently I don't have any clue to your questions of Bigstock and Deposit.

It was the latest version available, so I don't think that's the problem with my issue.

Does this mean that I have to manually adjust earnings after every payout?

If the old balance  minus the new balance equals or greater than $25 at Pond5( Each site has different payout threshold), the app will take it as a payout, otherwise, it will take it as a refund.  You can look at your case to see why this error happened.

If you don't run the app for a few days, and you get sales during this period, and then you run the app after the payout, the app will run into trouble.

The problem you meet may relate to your personal data on the corresponding agencies or your network, reinstall the app won't help you solving the problem in most cases, I'm afraid you can only deselect all the abnormal agencies from agencies config screen.
